How To Make Breakfast Pizza Recipe

Ingredients

Base (choose one):

• 1 pre-made pizza dough (or homemade)
• OR 1 large naan bread
• OR 4 English muffins (halved)
• OR 1 large flour tortilla

Toppings (classic version):

• 6 large eggs
• 2 cups shredded mozzarella (about 8 oz)
• 6 strips bacon, cooked and crumbled
• ½ bell pepper, diced
• ¼ red onion, thinly sliced
• 1 cup baby spinach (optional)
• Salt + black pepper

Sauce (choose one):

• ½ cup pizza sauce
• OR ¼ cup garlic butter (melted)
• OR ⅓ cup hollandaise (rich brunch style)

Directions

3-Step Directions:

1. Prep the oven + crust: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Stretch dough onto a baking sheet or pizza pan. (If using naan/tortilla, place directly on a sheet.) Spread sauce, leaving a small border.
2. Add toppings + make egg wells: Sprinkle ¾ of the cheese first. Add bacon + veggies. Use a spoon to make small “wells,” then crack eggs into the wells (or lightly scramble them and pour over for even coverage). Season with salt + pepper.
3. Bake + finish: Top with the remaining cheese. Bake 12–18 minutes (less for thin bases), until crust is golden and egg whites are set. Rest 2 minutes, slice, and serve.

FAQs

1. Can I use store-bought crust? Yes — pizza dough, naan, or English muffins all work great.
2. How do I stop the pizza from getting soggy? Don’t overload toppings, and pre-cook watery vegetables. Pre-bake the crust if needed.
3. Should I scramble the eggs or leave them whole? Whole eggs give pretty yolks; scrambled gives even coverage and easier slicing.
4. How long do eggs take to cook on pizza? Usually 12–18 minutes at 425°F, depending on crust thickness and egg style.
5. Can I make it ahead of time? Yes. Prep toppings ahead, or bake the pizza and reheat slices the next day.
6. What cheese works best? Mozzarella melts best, but mixing in cheddar or parmesan adds more flavor.
7. Can I freeze breakfast pizza? Yes — freeze slices individually. Reheat in oven/air fryer for best texture.
8. What’s the fastest base option? Naan or tortillas — they bake quicker and need no stretching.
